Hi weasel the guano is in the soil i planted them in , slow release nutrient soil , should do them for first 6 weeks but there auto's and should be done in 60 - 70 days so i might not need to feed them any other nutes

i think you should up the neutes a tiny bit?
producing buds can be demending for plants
lookin great, iv no doubt that this will turn out well

hi mate i take it your in ireland? im in newbridge myself and doing a little grow at the mo myself. i hope you keep up the journal because i am tempted to try these auto fems myself so i would like to see how yours turn out. they look great at the moment but i would recommend a high potassium/phosphours nute just to get them buds nice and fat! i looked on the dutch passion website and it said you could expect 25-50 grams on the auto fems....i hope you achieve this and if you do it will inspire me to do a auto run myself.
oh where do you get your equipment??? i am up to navan at the mo but its a pain in the arse!
anyway good luck with your grow

All equipment sourced from local head shop, id be happy with 27 grammes per plant that should keep me going for a while. Plagron alga bloom added today to help them along NPK 1.5 13 14 thanks for the help lads.

how long have they been growing and when do you expect to chop em?

27 days old 2day , i suppose approx 40 days to go there suppossed to be done in 60 days buts that with optimal conditions which my plants certainly dont have so im adding on an extra week. Ill post pics 2morrow the fan leaves are getting more yellowish in colour im worried about them. Fed them there first nutes 2day so hopefully they will get a boost.

 

[Eire1916]

i should add that these are on 16/8 light schedule from start to end if i get there

your beein too harsh on your self there about the conditions, theyv got 600watts of sodium light floatin above them in good soil with a regular cycles of light and feeding,simple effective system thats hard to fuck up after a lil practice.
a week more flowering time is very common, for me at least, i always think they can get a little bit bigger, sometimes they do sometimes they dont. or if i wana flush em longer pending on neute consumption. at the end of the day the plant finnishes when you chop it!
a grower i know has about 40 days left on 3 g13 hazes!

 

[Eire1916]

Ok lads there is defo something wrong with one of the plants any ideas as to whats wrong ? Should i just cut them leaves off ??

 

[Eire1916]

Should i pluck right @ the stem , the second pic is another leave on the same plant with the spots of rot or mould or whatever i dont know what it is but should i pluck that one also ,

P.S thanks for the quick reply

I agree, that yellow leaf isn't doing your plant any favours..
Looking great...

if your at risk of mould then chop it from the origin, it might pop off a downward tug. im not familair with the immune demands of an autoflower but this is common in flowering plants, the rest will soon bee doin it, buds get frosty while leaves sacrafice their green goodness for the buds.
they startin to smell yet

Wait till they are 50 to 75% yellow then take them off as they have no benifit to your plant, infact the oppisite...
I dont think you have nothing to worry about..
Just remember Auto flowers are mixed up ginetics so they can do silly thngs like this..
I once flowered a lowryder 2 for 16 weeks..! tricoms never went orange one bit..!!!

hey Eire!

where did you get the seeds? could you post a grow / smoke report when you are done?

thanks

edit dont worry about the yellow leaves that happens when the buds pull energy from them. they will die and drop off on their own. it is much worse on outdoor grow ops because you cant controll the nutes as well.
